Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: good to very good. The card has darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period. There are many pinholes scattered in each corner, with some tiny creases and a few tiny tears. The image area is in pretty nice condition. There is brown paper tape on the back of the left and bottom borders. See our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of this card.
